I know that I can speak for ourselves and Team 20 in saying that we would very much prefer to compete in New England. Neither team has competed more than once outside of New England in recent history (us at FLR in 2009 and 20 at FLR in 2008.) Also our relative isolation from other NY teams means it makes sense for us to be included in NE. (Look at Andrew Schreiber's wondermap here.)
Having worked with two other capital region teams (that I believe are still active) in 1493 and 1665 I am fairly certain that they would also prefer New England to either NYC/LI or FLR.
